Octmore Distillery was build in 1814 at Octmore Farm, which was on the hill behind Port Charllote. It was a very small distillery, they had only one small pot still of 60 gallons. It was stoped making whisky around 1840, and then closed.
I spent for a long time at shop in Bruichladdich Distillery. The bus to Port Charlotte was in 1 minute. I went to the bus stop in fromt of distillery in a hurry. I thought I was able to catch the bus, because I didin’t saw any bus.
20 minutes later, I understood that I missed to catch the bus. I had to walk about 3km.
I started to walk but I was pretty depressed. A few minute later, the car stopped at my side. The staff of Bruichladdich Distillery was going to Port Charlotte.
“Where are you going? Take my car!”
He took me to Port Charlotte, in front of warehouse of Loch Indaal Distillery and he gave me some information about Octmore Distillery.
Scottish people often help me during my stay in Scotland. I always appreciate their kindness.

Bruichladdich Distillery lie n north east of Port Charlotte. Just there on the opposite shore of Bowmore of town across the Loch Indaal. See the Bowmore distillery on the other side of the beautiful Loch view.
It was established in 1881, the second newest distillery in Isle of Islay.
Bruichladdich was mothballed in 1995 by Whyte & Mackay Co. Ltd. After that, Mr. Jim McEwan and Murray McDavid, independent Bottler, took over and restart to produce whisky. In 2003, they finished to build the bottling line, the first bottling equipment in Isle of Islay though it is a very small.
They produce not strong peat and smoking flavor malt whisky, it is their traditional style, and two types of strong peat flavor malt whisky, called Port Charlotte and Octmore. Those are aged in warehouse, remain of Loch Indaal distillery in the town of Port Charlotte.
